    @Blizzard_Ent fix your servers I can't even play overwatch for 2 minutes without crashing

  • MlodziutkiOski Oskar (@MlodziutkiOski) reported

    @CyraxxDk29695 @FN_Assist @FortniteGame the joke is that they had to spend these skins on the most wanted event and so far they are gone and they were broken and the spray was from overwatch and the sprays from the battle pass were broken

  • nsfwblackle Nsfwblackle 🔞 Comms closed! (3/3)!!! (@nsfwblackle) reported

    @GruesomThe XD If you are new to the Horsewatch series, it started last year as an excuse to draw horsecocks on overwatch girls (cuz i looked on rule 34 and there was almost none, so i wanted to fix that) people seemed to like the idea so here's part 2 xd

  • _Extol_ 🍁Extol🍁 (@_Extol_) reported

    It’s extremely frustrating and demoralizing to still have this problem when we are way past due at the very least an explanation. I love Overwatch and I appreciate the work you all put in for sure, but it becomes harder and harder to put faith in it. @aaronkellerOW

  • sealapiss lapis (@sealapiss) reported

    saudade ferias no problems just overwatch 2 com o lucas

  • DevilAspiring AspiringDevil (@DevilAspiring) reported

    @Americantrags @PimpMasterYoda1 @GundamIsHere No they were doing better than after that obviously but even as far back as the 2nd year of OverWatch people got wise & where making fun of they're solve all PR problems by declaring someone gay

  • realchunmer chun (@realchunmer) reported

    OVERWATCH SERVERS DOWN 😡😡😡

  • Zeeliiiaa Zeeliiaa (@Zeeliiiaa) reported

    overwatch needs to fix their ****** rank system im tired of getting dirt 5 in my plat and diamond lobbies

  • eQuin0xy0 eQuin0x (@eQuin0xy0) reported

    @Jay3OW Well yeah, the playerbase is part of the problem for sure. I've realized that quite a few people I have talked to, don't wanna hear a single bad thing about Overwatch. And if u complain it's "then don't play". But if a game you were very passionate feels so bad, how can you not.

  • devn_h devon (@devn_h) reported

    WHY ARE THE OVERWATCH SERVERS DOWN

  • yokolinv lifeweaver is so meow meow (@yokolinv) reported

    bro I literally can’t play Lifeweaver without getting targeted/focused the whole game, if a character like him pisses you off to the point you target the players you have some serious issues tbh, literally I can’t play in peace #overwatch

  • willthe_pharaoh Living Deimos 🦈 (@willthe_pharaoh) reported

    @DarkStarMonarch @OWAnonymous_ Her kit hasn’t changed much since the inception of overwatch and she has never been overpowering. If you have an issue with her sleep then honestly that’s a skill issue and you need to learn how to bait it out and either dodge or block it. Ana players can’t have anything anymore

  • RealGodz1lla F/A RealGodz1lla (@RealGodz1lla) reported

    @pandatristen That’s your opinion, & again it’s not my problem for Ewok becuz Ewok never support me and any deaf players selfishly. Ewok still think Ewok is the best deaf video gamer for all kinds of games: Apex,OverWatch, FN, and many more. Why can’t Ewok support the deaf gamers skillfully?

  • Imtheduckwalker Elijah Sponseller (@Imtheduckwalker) reported

    Hello @Blizzard_Ent I’ve been playing comp in overwatch I got disconnected from a match once and I’ve got banned from competitive can you please fix this

  • JaharaMatisek FRANKY (@JaharaMatisek) reported

    @JJakpaw @Florian93721335 @Felix_Nuno Always risk to any sort of NEO. I’d have no problem sending C-17s, C-130s, and A400s with armed overwatch from an AC-130 and other platforms like a B-52 etc., assuming the airport perimeter could be controlled and maintained.

  • DavidCh439 David Chavez (@DavidCh439) reported

    @BlizzardCSEU_EN @Playoverwatch issues with Overwatch 2 in Europe ? Unable to connect to a gameserver. Keep getting "game server connection failed - retrying"

  • PocketBriye Briye (@PocketBriye) reported

    I don't know who needs to hear this but Mercys are the most harassed players in Overwatch. If you are a Mercy player being catty and ****** to another Mercy. YOU ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM AND ARE A SCUMBAG.
